Science behind this product: Human body roughly has about 5 million hair follicles at birth. On a normal scalp there are 100,000–150,000 hair. Every human hair typically undergoes 10 – 20 such cycles during an average lifetime. These stages are called: anagen (the growth stage), catagen (the regression stage), and telogen (the resting stage). In the anagen phase, the hair is actively growing. Roughly 84% of hair are in the anagen phase and this lasts 3 – 10 years. Anagen is followed by the next stage, called catagen, during which the hair stops growing but cellular activity still continues. Only about 1% of hair are in the catagen phase, and this stage lasts 2 – 3 weeks only. The final stage, called telogen, is the stage during which there is no growth of hair or activity at the hair bulb. Approximately 15% of hair are in the telogen phase, and this stage lasts 3 – 4 months before a new anagen hair develops. The imbalance of the hair growth cycle leads to a reduced number of growing (anagen) hair combined with an increased number of degenerating (telogen) ones.
- 5% Capixyl: A blend of acetyl tetrapeptide-3 and the red clover extract, not only preserves hair follicle stem cell activity, but it also modulates DHT (a hormone, high levels of which, results in hairfall). Testosterone converts to DHT with the help of 5α-reductase (an enzyme), and capixyl inhibits activity of this enzyme, which keeps DHT production in check.
- 3% Redensyl: Vitalizes outer root sheath stem cells, hence triggering a new hair cycle. It also nourishes hair follicles, which accelerates anagen phase (hair growth phase).
- 3% Procapil: A biotinoyl tripeptide-1, promotes hair anchoring by strengthening the follicle metabolism and structure.
- 3% Anagain: Reduces hair loss by inducing dermal papilla cells (cells at the base of hair follicle) to reactivate hair growth.
- 4% Baicapil: Increases the A/T ratio, thus activating telogen follicles and extending the anagen phase.
About the Brand: Founded in 2020 with the belief that the beauty industry requires a revolution with respect to transparency, Minimalist believes that it should place importance on the actives of a plant rather than the plant itself. So, instead of rubbing some apples or citrus fruits on your face and hoping you will get results, what you should look for is glycolic acid which these foods contain. The brand strives to create ‘Clean Beauty’ products. Products that are free from well-researched toxins and do not sensitise your skin – irrespective of their natural or naturally derived tag.
Minimalist is committed to bringing ‘transparency in beauty’. Their approach is to offer transparent dosage by showing active concentration, transparent grades by sharing ingredient trade name, transparent formulations by using clean ingredients, transparent claims by sharing consumer studies of each formulation. This direct and simplistic approach makes their products highly effective, easy to understand, and extremely affordable for everyone.
